EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, the Duchess of York, later known as Queen Mary, is seen cradling her second son, Prince Albert, who would later become King George VI of the United Kingdom. The image, captured around the year 1897, showcases the tender bond between mother and child as they share a moment of love and connection. Queen Mary, born Princess Mary of Teck in 1867, was the daughter of Francis, Duke of Teck, and Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge. She married the future King George V in 1893, and together they had six children: Edward, Albert, Mary, Henry, George, and John. Prince Albert, born on December 14, 1895, was the second son and third child of the royal couple. He was a beloved figure in the British royal family, known for his kind and gentle nature. In this photograph, the young prince, dressed in a charming outfit, gazes intently at his mother with an expression of pure adoration. The Duchess of York, now Queen Mary, holds her son in her lap, her hand gently resting on his back, providing him with comfort and support. The warm lighting and soft focus of the photograph create an intimate and nostalgic atmosphere, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. This image is a poignant reminder of the enduring love between a mother and her child, as well as the rich history of the British monarchy. It is a precious moment in time, frozen in a photograph, that continues to captivate and inspire us today.
